Captain Wagemann and the officers.
Who by the way were all here on the
former visit of the Nlcomedla, say that
the fireman who le.-iped overboard evl
; idently took a desperate chance of
reaching shore by swimming to one of a
fleet of fish hunts that were seen far
out to sea that night. Possibly the boat
was near whrn ho cast himself over the
rail of the rapidly moving Bteamer and
managed to struggle to It. Ho tar as
known no life preservers are missing,
but It Is argued that he probably took
- a piece of board to float on until picked
tip. The man. who was probably 21
years of age, was making his first voy
age and suffered much from sea elck
Yiess immediately after leaving tho har
bor of Hongkong.
The Nlcomedla brought 2.650 tons of
freight measurement, a large portion of
ft being tea. All told thu cargo ron
slsts of 27,67 packages, some for Port
land, but the greater quantity' for
points in the east and on the Atlantic
onset. Among the freight for this city
are five boxes of silk valued at approxi
mately sso.uou. 'mere are 2,400 cases
of firecrackers, 722 packages of general
. merchandise, 200 bales of gunnies, 7,082
bales of matting, 00 bales of Cassia
and 12.896 cases of tea. Most of the
cassia and tea shipments go overland.
Tho voyage from Hongkong was
fairly pleasant from a weather point
tft view. Light and moderate winds

when a gale sprang up and made things
lively. Then the waves began to pour

Men Who Hit What Thej Shoot At
Are Determining Factor in War.
Other things being equal, good shoot
ing Is the determining factor In war.
Poorly drilled and hastilv organized
bodies of men can give a good account
of themselves If they know how to shoot
and hit what they shoot at.
In our war for Independence, savs
Armv and Navy Life, the colonists we're
woodsmen. They carried and used their
arms to supply their homes with food
and to protect them from the savage.
As marksmen they vastly outclassed the
British, and that more than anything
else gave Washington the final victory.
Again. In our great civil war, mark
the effect of a general knowledge of
firearms. In the south were sporting
people; they were fond of riding and
hunting, shooting at target and at game
entered into their sports and pastimes.
The north was commercial.
Its men knew little or nothing of fire
arms, save the flintlocks of their grand
fathers, objects of curlouslty in their
shops or homes, except in the far west
where the life of 1776 was still being
lived. The result was that in the east
the southern troops were generally vic
torious for a couple of years until the
northern troops learned to shoot. What
little success tho north had was In the
west, where they were little better than
a standoff.

For the past "few years the Portland
churches have been drawing from the
Presbyterian board of home missions
about $6,000 yearly for the support of
the churches in the presbytery that were
not self-supporting and for work of ex
tending churches into new districts.
The contributions from the presbytery
to home missions has never during that
time exceeded $2,000. Aa a result the
home mission board has been out )4.000
yearly for the support of Portland
churches despite the reports of the won
derful prosperity that have como from
this presbytery continually. .
"Home rule In home missions" Is the
principle adopted for the future. The
convention is called to put Into opera
tion the plan formulated by the com
mittee and as each member or tne com
mittee Is enthusiastic over tho plan it
l thought that each church member in
the presbytery will become equally en
thused when the plan Is broached. There
..no doubt In the minds of the com
mittee but that the effort to make the
Portland presbytery self-supporting and
independent will ba successful.

iructure in whlcli Alexander Pope, the
great poet and satirist, lived. The

they were when he bought the estate
with the proceeds of his translation of
the "Iliad. ' Should an American buy It.
nd there Is grave possibility of such a
hock being administered to British
pride, lie will be uble to assure his
uests that their surroundings on every
and were frequently those of tile fa
mous coterie of literary lights who hov
ered around the "asp of Twickenham,"
as Pope was termed.
Near by, too, is the poet's famous
grotto, and his remains lie In the parish
church at Twickenham. There are to
be found the monuments raised by Pope
to hla parents and a memorial ho erect
ed to a nurse who served him for.SS
years. Pope bought the estate in 17l
and occupied it until his death.
Immediately after the death of the
poet ihe estate was sold to Sir William
Stanhope, by whom the house was much
enlarged. The next owner was Mr. Wel
bore Ellis afterwards Lord Mendip
nnd at his decease it passed to Sir .John
Briscoe and the Baroness Howe. Lady
nvc, a aauRnter or tne ceieornted ad
miral, demolished the mansion and
built herself an entirely new residence
In close proximity. In the course of
lime mis shared an equally ignomin
ious rate, tn part of it was razed
to the ground, and the remaining portion
divided into two tenements. A third
Duuuing sun Known as "1'ope s Villa,"
was shortly afterwards erected by a
tea merchant of the name of Young
and in 1876 this, together with the ad
joining grounds, was again offered for
sale. Mr. Labouchere was in occupation
of the place as recently As the last par
liament, at the close of which he re
tired from public life.
Just why "Labby" wishes to dispose
of the villa Is not known. It was sup
posed by those who knew him intimate
ly that he regarded It as one of his
most treasured possessions. He is pop
ularly credited with still being a rich
man. This despite the constant drain
on his treasury by the Italian count
who married his onlv child more than
four years ago. Despite, too. the fact
that he has spent as much as $uOO,noo
in iu years on nnei litigation In which
he has been involved through "Truth's"
vigorous attacks on frauds and abuses
